Moriarty Pins 3-0 Loss on Buffalo
When he got to Moriarty, Marco Montes was just worrying about staying on the roster. Today, he was starring in the League Championship Series.

The 20-year-old rookie right-hander shut out the host Buffalo Bellflowers, 3-0, in a remarkable performance at Wegman's Field. With the win, the Suns took a 2-0 lead in the best-of-7 League Championship Series.

Montes, a native of Calabozo, Venezuela, was dealing all game. He kept Buffalo hitters off-balance, while giving the Suns 8.1 quality innings. Montes threw 110 pitches, allowing 2 hits and striking out 5.

Moriarty manager Ron Kunkleman called it "a darn good win."

Game 3 is scheduled for Monday at Super Solarplex in Moriarty.
